Four Chicago aldermen join us with a half-term report card for Mayor Lori Lightfoot.
Lori Lightfoot surged from near unknown status to become the first African American, the first woman and the first openly gay mayor of Chicago. Lightfoot took the oath of office two years ago and could not have anticipated what lay ahead. Chicago Alds. Anthony Beale, George Cardenas, Brian Hopkins and Raymond Lopez join us in discussion.
